Description: Following in line with the prior talks about package
managers, it seems almost natural to ponder about our other distribution
choices. Gentoo GNU/Linux offers its own package manager using its own
method of obtaining software: Portage. This talk will discuss what
Gentoo is; how Portage works; what it does; the program and process of
emerge and ebuilds; and some nifty utilities.
